After tonight's member meeting, I'm going to demo the RaspBMC project on my RPi
It's one thing to appreciate the engineering behind RPi's hardware, raspbmc makes you appreciate the multimedia software as well. I was able to finally use my older TV that doesn't have a HDMI connection but did have composite with the RaspBMC project. The thing that I was _really_ impressed by was the software's ability to configure the right resolution for the TV. Also, I have my camera that I'll be bringing .. we can tape some photos and videos for the project.
